Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road novel Chapter 702

Chapter 702: Her Decisiveness

"My Lord, why is your hair white?" Xing Juan asked in shock.

"My Lord, your eyes!" Mo Da exclaimed, equally stunned.

They had been too preoccupied to focus on their reunions with her, failing to properly inspect her until now. Upon seeing her long, beautiful white hair that resembled pure snow in winter, along with her unusual two-colored eyes, they were left utterly speechless.

"This is my true appearance," Shenlian Yingyue explained to them. As she walked into the palace, she surveyed the furniture and architectural design within, her heart heavy with emotion.

She sat down, taking the teacup from Xiang Ju’s hand and sipping the tea slowly. Her long butterfly eyelashes concealed the feelings brimming in her eyes.

"My Lord, please be honest with us," Mo Da urged, taking a deep breath. He couldn’t divert his gaze from her face, as if everything else in the world had lost its significance compared to her presence.

Given their intelligence, they understood that something significant was about to unfold, and a sense of dread settled over them.

"You guessed correctly, my origin is not ordinary. I have many powerful enemies. This will be my last visit here." Her words held hidden meanings, yet also provided them a chilling hint.

"My Lord, you’re leaving this planet," the four of them exclaimed in unison. Their pupils dilated, their hearts raced with fear, and it felt as though they could hardly breathe.

The warm atmosphere quickly gave way to an oppressive silence.

Xiao Yun leisurely popped a blueberry into his mouth and leaned against her as if oblivious to everyone else in the room.

"Don’t you have any other questions?" Shenlian Yingyue asked, surprised. She had anticipated inquiries about her origins or her identity, but they proved her wrong.

"My Lord, we don’t care about your identity. In our hearts, you are our lord—the only one we respect and admire. Life and death can never separate us from you," they declared in unison, expressing their unwavering loyalty.

Shenlian Yingyue gently caressed Xiao Yun’s head, sensing their devotion.

They were undeterred by the nature of her enemies or the potential dangers they might face because of her. All they wanted was to stand by her side.

"You are young and have a long future ahead of you. Stay here and take your time to train. I will pass the authority of the Luminous Moon Palace to you," she decided, resolved not to take them with her.

She envisioned a future where, under their leadership, the Luminous Moon Palace would thrive, gaining fame and recognition. People would come to know just how powerful this force had become.

"I’ll leave my contracted partners here. They will assist you." She referred to the hundreds of beasts she had bound to her in the Poisonous Valley.

After concluding her words, she stood up and walked into her room, not waiting for their response.

The reason she revealed her true self to them was that she trusted them. This was a sign that she acknowledged their importance in her heart.

The four people stood in silence, watching as her slender figure gradually faded from view.

No one knew what they were thinking, and no one could discern how they felt in that moment.

"My Lord, you..." everyone felt a lump in their throats.

What kind of person was generous enough to share such valuable resources with others? These treasure maps could spark a bloody conflict across the entire planet, risking lives for the chance to obtain them, yet she had given them away so freely.

"Your future is in your hands." She understood that she couldn’t help them much; all she could do was pave the way and let them walk by themselves.

Their lives and deaths would depend on their abilities and choices. She would not interfere with their destinies.

Outside the palace, four figures leaned against the wall, listening to her conversation with faint, unreadable expressions.

"She really did her best to cut off her connection with us, to prevent us from following her," Xing Juan said through clenched fists, feeling a sharp pain.

"She doesn’t want us to follow her and meet a grim fate, but..." Mo Da paused, a deep smile creeping onto his lips. His innocent eyes flickered with a hint of darkness.

"Hmm..." De Lun and Xiang Ju looked at the door, their cold expressions even more chilling.

If anyone were to witness their expressions now, they would tremble for no apparent reason.

Mr. Potato: "What are these kids talking about?" (He tilted his head in confusion.)

While Shenlian Yingyue was in the Luminous Moon Palace arranging matters, a major event unfolded outside.
